Website Goes Live

We have completed work on vancouverofficeproducts.com. This site has five static pages and three self posting forms. Our client, Vancouver Office Products, showed off the site at the Vancouver VBJUSA's "Local" trade show. Scott Tiniakos from VOP said " I love the web design and its exactly what we wanted". The site is using Coldfusion to accommodate the self posting forms. The forms use the cfcalendar tag in version 8. We also saved some money with some images from Istock photo.The image of Scott was taken by the Columbian.

CF8 Mail Spooler

I have a chronic problem with the way Coldfusion handles the email spooler. Apparently the spooler jams up when there are simultaneous requests. Once jammed there is no mechanism in place to alert the administrator of the issue. The problem only becomes apparent when automated emails go undelivered such as e-commerce receipts for purchases. I would be appreciative of any input anyone may have in the CF community about this issue.

GRFXS has Moved

GRFXS has moved into the Chumesero-Smith house at 310 w. 11th Street in Vancouver WA. We really like it here. The house itself is on the National Register of Historic Places. The downtown location gives me plenty of opportunities to meet new clients, and other contacts.
